Hi,
I agree that we should continue with our plan to meet tomorrow and
should also hold a vote as we've done for past RM elections where this
is only one candidate.
With that in mind, I'll open up the floor to questions for Galen when I
start the meeting, with discussion of the release goals.
As a reminder, Everyone is invited to participate in the voting.
Evergreen core committers who cannot make the meeting may submit their
vote via email
to the open-ils-dev mailing list.
Thank you!
Kathy

Hi Dan,
I suspect we have different views on the role of competition in
certain community decisions, but I'm sure that we both would have
approached the vote in a spirt of fair play and with no hard feelings,
regardless of the outcome. Nevertheless, I respect your decision and
look forward to working with you and the entire Evergreen development
community towards what will be the best release of Evergreen yet this
fall.
I suggest that folks plan on touching base tomorrow at 1 p.m. EDT in
#evergreen anyway to discuss plans for 3.0 and confirm that we're all
on more or less the same page regarding release goals.
Regards,
Galen

Hello all,
Since our project adopted the idea of "release managers" in 2012, we have
managed to select each by consensus. While we typically had elections, the
nominees until now have always run unopposed.
I find this tradition to be a beautiful thing, and one I would like to see
preserved for as long as possible. As such, I am withdrawing myself from
consideration for the RM role for 3.0. While I believe strongly in the
value of competition, I feel that unity is of even greater value for a
community of our size.
I hope instead that I might be considered for management of the 3.1 release.
It seems that my vision for the 3.0 release is perhaps better suited for a
3.1 release in any case.
Sincerely,
Dan
